Chaos in War N Peace

Post by rcj »

Hi all,

Added more HA data to last season's collection for the War N Peace nebula tonight (3 hours exposure) with the 5" refractor.

Here's the inner region of the nebula showing a very chaotic environment (it seems!).

And we have the wider field version to see it's entirety.

Thanks for sharing! It should have been called the Protoss Dragoon Nebula!

Hi Remus,
Good images.
Looks like you can extract the last drop of Juice from Singapore skies.
The wide field shot looks like a Scorpion's head.

This object always give me that sinister feeling, more so in its deep red colour form. [smilie=woa.gif]
